About Me

I am happily married to the most wonderful man I ever took a chance on. I enjoy time spent in the kitchen - it relaxes me.
As someone pointed out to me, the kitchen is often the heart of the home. It is in ours.

Mr. & Mrs. Potts!

Established November 8, 2008

This started as a way to chronicle my love of all things food - grocery shopping, cooking stores, recipes, baking, cooking and experimenting.

I found that however much I love food, there are other things that occupy my time/thoughts. Some serious - God, family, health, love and more. Other thoughts are definitely not serious - fashion, cosmetics, moisturizers, conditioner and perhaps even my search for the perfect pair of running shoes.

Why share all this with "strangers"? My husband, Mr. Potts, tells me I am a chatty Cathy something akin to a wind up doll where you pull the string and the chatting starts. He appreciates the fact that I choose to spare him (sometimes) all these random thoughts. Yet, he also benefits from my musings on food and my experiments in our kitchen.

Wishful Wednesday

'I wish' .... I got paid $1 million a year to ____!

(job or career)

My thoughts usually go all over the place with things like this. My biggest wish would be that I got paid $1 million a year to run a doggie daycare on a huge piece of land. I'd incorporate my mom & the children as well. With a big enough house and a huge piece of land, they could live there worry free.

They'd be exposed to fresh air & doggies & my mom would be in heaven getting to see and interact with lots of animals each day. Not only that, but since I would be getting so well paid, I'd rescue tons of animals too. Dogs & cats & squirrels & all sorts of other fuzzy things.

Wishful Wednesday was started by Kelsey over at The Seattle Smith'sas a way to get us through those lovely hump days.In her own words, "It may be a wish, a hope, a dream or an aspiration - some topics may be fun & playful and others more insightful - but most importantly, it will give us an opportunity to get to know our fellow bloggers a little bit better, and see what makes each of us tick..."

I also had to share a picture of our dinner from Monday night. The Strawberry Chicken salad with Goat Cheese was so good we had it again last night. I added some Granny Smith Apple pieces to it & while it may look like the chicken is piled on there, it really isn't.

Aww, We rescued our dog. My husband wants to rescue another one...but I am not ready for another yet! I would send my lovely dog to your daycare though!! I would LOVE LOVE for her to have other doggies and people to play with while we are at work!Great Wish!

So creative! I was throwing ideas out last night and said I would be a dog walker ... and my husband was like that would get old! I love doggies too, and what a great thing to own a huge place that's safe for them to stay!

If I could get paid a million dollars, Molly Lou Gifts would finally be all that I want it to be with fabulous brick and mortar shops and more products. I could also have some help so that I coudl spend more time with the minis.

Thanks for doing this! It was so fun and if I had dogs, you know they would be coming your way.

Love the doggie daycare idea! I wish I got paid a million dollars to run a petting zoo where schools can have field trips and I can rescue animals. I also wouldn't mind being paid to be creative and craftie!
